Rated recipe as is. This was very good and as others said, it can be customized to what you want. I got 4 main dish servings out of it and added extra milk, since it is pretty thick. I also added more onion, celery and 1 chicken bouillon cube. You could easily use plain cubed frozen or fresh potatoes & add your choice of veggies. The gravy mix I used was heavy on pepper so taste before you add black or white pepper. Couldn't find fat free gravy mix. Thanks, Steph from Susie

I made this twice and it was delicious!! You could not tell at all that it was low fat and it was so quick and easy to make! My daughter and husband both loved it too. Only changes I made was using the 20oz bag of hash browns and 3 14.5 oz cans of broth, 2 packs of country 1.3oz packets of gravy. My husband and daughter both added real bacon bits and extra cheese but I kept it healthy and pretty much stuck to the recipe! Fantastic!

My fiancé and I just made this soup as our rainy day lunch. It was fantastic and super easy! This will be repeated at our house a lot!! At our grocery store, the hash browns come in a 20oz package and the broth comes in 14oz cans, but the recipe still came out perfectly using those as is. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. It is a keeper!!

This was a great easy soup to prepare after working a long day. It seemed to lack something so my additions of a 10oz pkg of chopped frozen broccoli, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, 1 T. chives, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, and 3/4 cup of the cheddar melted in the soup elevated it to quite delicious. The chives were totally necessary IMO to take it to the next level. The gravy mix is brilliant to create that yummy, creamy texture potato soup must have!

I couldn't find fat free gravy like other reviewers, so I ended up using McCormick's Original Country Gravy. WIth that change, it made the calories per serving around 160. However, I really don't think this recipe makes 6 servings, unless you're serving a few tablespoons of soup to each person. This makes more like 4 small servings. I also couldn't find a 16oz bag of hash browns, so I used a little more than a half bag of Ore-Ida O'Brien potatoes which comes in a 28oz bag. Given all that, this is a great recipe for how easy and quick it is to make! Very thick and creamy, perfect for a cool fall day. I didn't have to add any additional spices, but this of course, will depend on the brand of gravy you use.
